Orgeron's relationship with Kiffin dates back over 20 years. The two were on staff together at USC before Orgeron worked for Kiffin at Tennessee and at USC. When Kiffin was hired at LSU, there was talk of Orgeron joining Kiffin's staff. Now, it's official.

Orgeron was LSU's head coach from 2016-21. The highs were high, with LSU winning the national championship in 2019 and going 15-0. LSU faltered in Orgeron's final two years, eventually leading to his departure. Still, Orgeron's tenure was defined by the highs, not the lows.
